Why use ice scratchers?

Have you ever come to a lake crossing and found that there is no snow, just glare ice?

Riding through this situation is bad for a modern snowmobile.

Machines depend on the snow for lubrication of the sliders and depend on the snow dust to be tossed on the heat exchangers for engine cooling.

Modern high-horsepower, liquid-cooled motors require excess cooling capacity helped create a need for a device that could kick cooling snow onto the slides and up to the cooling extrusions — mounted along the runningboards, under the seat or ahead of the track.

A simple addition of ice scratchers can help maintain good snow lube in minimal conditions and help reduce engine overheating.
